This looks very good! The next thing is to see if we can generate the
module-info files - as you know, we'll probably need some way to include
some aspects of the module declaration in the configuration file(s) so
that it can be passed through to the generated module-info files.

We might want to rename this to "deprecated" so that we can define a
coarser grain "compat" module that includes "deprecated", legacy
protocol and content handlers (in net-misc for now), legacy security
code (in security-misc for now), the MIDI package, CORBA and
out-of-favor APIs :-)
